[QUOTE="J E Custom, post: 1078314, member: 2736"] The mag box should be loose and not bind anywhere after the action screws are torqued. How loose is to loose is a good question. Considering the fact that it is simply a container and a guide for the follower, spring and the cartridges, I would think yours will be fine and should have no effect on the accuracy. The common way to reduce the clearance is to lower the action in the stock or inlet the bottom metal deeper in the stock. this occurs often after a bedding job is done and mag clearance was not addressed in the prep before bedding. Everyone likes a good fit, but the main thing to watch for in the mag box is no binding (This can and will Effect accuracy. Just My Opinion J E CUSTOM [/QUOTE]
